Benefits of technology

The patent is about a system and method for manipulating video to enhance privacy. It detects areas of the video that can be potentially sensitive or distracting and applies user-configurable effects to these areas before sending the modified video stream. The system works independently of the video conferencing application and can detect areas like whiteboards, screens, and TVs in both the background and foreground of the video. This allows for a more selective and targeted approach to enhance privacy during video conferencing.

Problems solved by technology

However, full manipulation is often not necessary or desirable.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]For purposes of this disclosure, an information handling system may include any instrumentality or aggregate of instrumentalities operable to compute, classify, process, transmit, receive, retrieve, originate, switch, store, display, manifest, detect, record, reproduce, handle, or utilize any form of information, intelligence, or data for business, scientific, control, or other purposes. For example, an information handling system may be a personal computer, a network storage device, or any other suitable device and may vary in size, shape, performance, functionality, and price. The information handling system may include random access memory (RAM), one or more processing resources such as a central processing unit (CPU) or hardware or software control logic, ROM, and / or other types of nonvolatile memory. Additional components of the information handling system may include one or more disk drives, one or more network ports for communicating with external devices as well as var...

Abstract

A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a selective video manipulation operation for privacy enhancement. More specifically, the selective video manipulation operation detects video transmission protected regions in a scene and applies effects to these regions before transmitting a modified video stream which presents a selectively modified scene. In certain embodiments, the video transmission protected regions include potentially sensitive or distracting regions in the scene. In certain embodiments the selective video manipulation operation automatically detects video transmission protected regions which may be located in at least one of the background of the scene or the foreground attic scene and applies user-configurable effects to the identified regions.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to information handling systems. More specifically, embodiments of the invention relate to video manipulation for privacy enhancement.[0003]Description of the Related Art[0004]As the value and use of information continues to increase, individuals and businesses seek additional ways to process and store infbrmation. One option available to users is information handling systems. An information handling system generally processes, compiles, stores, and / or communicates information or data for business, personal, or other purposes thereby allowing users to take advantage of the value of the information. Because technology and information handling needs and requirements vary between different users or applications, information handling systems may also vary regarding what information is handled, how the information is handled, how much information is processed, stored, or communicated, and how quick...
